Today I’m answering the burning question, how to you make extra money with your farm. While our farm is not our main source of income, we’ve had to get resourceful in order to be able to keep the farm running. Today I’m sharing my experiences on the best ways to allow your farming endeavor to pay for itself.

This is so informative to me…Thank you <3
I LOVE YOU!!!
Hi…a while ago I noticed you had lumber with the bark still intact for your raised garden beds as the retaining boards……how is that holding up? Where did you find it? I’m having a hard time finding any……
What a good video. Inspiring.
Love the vid! You work hard and your place is beautiful. I was wondering how you're able to sell stuff you make without a certified kitchen. Not trying to make trouble! Its a stupid law brought about by the Pepsi people. I was hoping you found a legal way around it. Thank you!
So so sooo helpful, love the individual farmers box for customers! We are only a little over a year into our off grid life and the struggle is very real – so I’ve been You Tubing trying to get a few more ideas. I’m a Foodie – have been on the Rachel Ray show, so my current customer base is the elderly, cooking their meals in their homes (because I still don’t have a viable kitchen yet), and selling cookies to the local ladies I met at the towns boutique – the box idea could be the next level in what I already love to do! Your tips are very helpful! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for this! Hopefully soon we will be buying a homestead of our own and this video was full of useful information. For now, I am learning while growing what we can in our "urban homestead". Much love.
Get your cholesterol levels checked. Eating that many eggs can cause heart disease way to soon.
This video is amazing!
Very in depth video. Awesome job
You are living my dream!!! I have been on my husband about this for years! We have an acre backyard so doing all the gardening…I want more space, chickens, goats, etc…Thanks so much for your video and information! It is very helpful!

u wanna make money grow medical marijuana instead of tomatoes marijuana is 10 dollars per gram while tomatoes are 2 dollars per pound…
Wow. What a wealth of information here! Thank you so much.
You're really speaking my language in this video. Especially the part where you talk about hatching eggs as a source of revenue. I purchased a modest 7 acre plot back in August. The house came with an established flock (brood?) of 13 hens and 2 ducks. I picked up a few chicks at our local TSC which included a couple of Jersey Blue Giants. One was snatched up by a hawk, but the other has VERY quickly become my favorite. She is calm and doesn't mind being handled, not to mention beautiful like no other (even our Gold Laced Wyandotte isn't as pretty). In the spring I want to make the move to Jersey Blues exclusively, and focus on fertile eggs and chicks as a source of revenue. What incubator do you use? DO you have a link? I have just started researching them and am curious as to which one you have. Thank you!
why do you have tires hanging
around your garden? It looks cute but wondering if there is another reason.
